'Hood

poetry by Graham Coleman


'Hood

And you romanticize the Welsh
and you patronise the Welsh
talks about dodgy boozers
bank heists and rollers
I’m only quoting from the book
shooting pool with some Italian guys
52 expletives on the first page
a low life slummer, one night
in the slammer and now you schmooze
on the radio interview - your word not mine
your word not mine
a dinner table antidote, you like to think
you like to think
you live on the edge and
have a hint of the devil about you
whiff of dangerman
the ladies are impressed, oh yes the ladies are
very attracted to your blue chin
polo necked and VIP lounge
sharing jazz talc with Lenny
and ‘you know that bird from the shampoo ad’
